Definitions

  • a parking management system includes: a management server including a first processor that includes hardware.
  • the first processor is configured to acquire information of a vehicle that has entered a parking area from the parking server provided at the parking area, identify the vehicle that has entered the parking area and a user boarding the vehicle based on the information of the vehicle, if payment information of the user is acquired from a terminal of the user, connect the information of the vehicle and the payment information of the user, and calculate a parking fee of the vehicle based on parking time of the vehicle, a payment amount included in the payment information, and a parking fee agreement that is preset, and if payment of the parking fee has been completed by the terminal, open an exit gate provided in the parking area.
  • a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium with an executable program stored thereon The program is a parking management program configured to cause a processor having hardware to execute: acquiring information of a vehicle that has entered a parking area from the parking server provided at the parking area; identifying the vehicle that has entered the parking area and a user boarding the vehicle based on the information of the vehicle; if payment information of the user is acquired from a terminal of the user, connecting the information of the vehicle and the payment information of the user, and calculating a parking fee of the vehicle based on parking time of the vehicle, a payment amount included in the payment information, and a parking fee agreement that is preset.
  • the information transfer unit 112 connects the vehicle number included in the vehicle information, which has been previously acquired from the parking server 20 , with the payment information and outputs the vehicle number and the payment information to the parking server 20 .
  • the communication unit 12 includes, for example, a Local Area Network (LAN) interface board, a wireless communication circuit for wireless communication, etc.
  • the communication unit 12 is connected to the network NW such as the Internet, which is a public telecommunication network.
  • the communication unit 12 carries out communication with the parking server 20 , the vehicle 40 , and the terminal 50 by the connection with the network NW.
  • the payment history information 133 is information about payment of the wallet service.
  • the payment history information 133 includes the user ID, a payment means used for payment (for example, electronic money payment (non-contact payment), payment by scanning, payment by code, etc.), a purchase history of commercial products, or the like.
  • the parking-fee calculation unit 212 calculates the parking fee of the vehicle 40 based on the parking time of the vehicle 40 calculated by the parking-time calculation unit 211 , the payment amount included in the payment information of the terminal 50 acquired from the management server 10 , and the agreement on the parking fee.
  • the display control unit 431 a controls display of the operation/display unit 433 .
  • the display control unit 431 a causes the operation/display unit 433 to display predetermined information based on operation (touch operation, flick operation, or the like) by the user.
  • control unit 431 identifies the user boarding the vehicle 40 by acquiring the information, which indicates the fact that the terminal 50 has been connected to the vehicle 40 , (hereinafter, referred to as “connection information”) from a vehicle link unit 512 .
  • connection information information, which indicates the fact that the terminal 50 has been connected to the vehicle 40 .
  • a method of identifying the user boarding the vehicle 40 is not particularly limited, and, for example, biometric authentication (for example, fingerprint authentication, voice authentication, iris authentication, face authentication, etc.) or the like may be used.
  • the positioning unit 434 receives radio waves from a Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite and detects information about the current position of the vehicle 40 (hereinafter, referred to as “vehicle position information”).
  • GPS Global Positioning System
  • a method of detecting the vehicle position information is not limited to the method using the GPS satellite, but, for example, a method combining a Light Detection and Ranging, Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) with a three-dimensional digital map may be used.
  • the positioning unit 434 outputs the detected vehicle position information to, for example, the parking server 20 .
  • Examples of the case in which the payment information is output to the management server 10 via the other server include a case in which the user makes payment by using the electronic money changed in the wallet.
  • the payment processing unit 513 outputs a payment request to the management server 10 via a server (shop server) provided at the shop.
  • the control unit 11 of the management server 10 which has acquired the payment request, reduces the balance of the electronic money in the wallet of the user based on the payment amount included in the payment request and updates the wallet information 132 and the payment history information 133 , thereby completing payment.
  • the operation/display unit 54 displays a payment complete screen indicating a fact that the payment has been completed, a checkout complete screen indicating a fact that the checkout of the parking fee has been completed, information indicating the remaining time that allows free parking for the vehicle 40 , information indicating the remaining amount of the payment amount required to make the parking fee free, or the like based on control by the display control unit 511 .
  • the vehicle number read by the vehicle-registration-plate reading device 33 and the payment information of the user are connected and transmitted to the parking server 20 so that the parking fee can be cancelled out by the payment fee of the user.
  • ticketless payment of the parking fee can be made without using a parking ticket.
  • control unit 11 of the management server 10 calculates the parking time of the vehicle 40 by subtracting the entry time from the exit time of the vehicle 40 (step S 22 ). Subsequently, the control unit 11 calculates the parking fee of the vehicle 40 based on the payment amount included in the payment information acquired from the terminal 50 , the parking time of the vehicle 40 , and the agreement on the parking fee (step S 23 ).
  • the parking time and the parking fee of the vehicle 40 is calculated in the management server 10 side in this manner. As a result, the computation load on the parking server 20 can be reduced.
